Movie Metropolis (309 KP) rated Titanic (1997) in Movies
Jun 10, 2019 (Updated Jun 10, 2019)
Watching it again over 20 years later still showcases Titanic’s incredible special effects, emotional plot and stunning cinematography and sound design. This disaster film is the biggest of all time and it’s easy to see why, despite the, at times, flabby story.

The suffering that followed in the wake of the disaster is mind blowing though the 'official' recorded death toll is only around 35 people.
A must watch for young and old though some seems are upsetting / distressing.
Although the team of scientists who supported after the incident were mainly depicted by one character in the series, the bravery of those people is inspiring and should not be forgotten.
Fred (860 KP) rated Mao Mao: Heroes of Pureheart in TV
Jul 23, 2019
Thing is, Mao Mao can be a bit of a disaster himself. He's also a bit full of himself. In fact, it's his fault the town of Pure Heart valley. Picture a world the Care Bears might live, along with the characters from Adventure Time.
The show is really funny & the characters are great. I find myself actually laughing out loud many times any episode. Hopefully this one sticks around.
